The Office of University Access Programs (UAP) is responsible for the stewardship of key programs and services that increase access and the academic success of first-generation, low-income, and underrepresented students in higher education.

These programs include the Southern Educational Opportunity Program (SEOP), New Haven Promise Scholars (NHP), Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP), and Promoting Academically Successful Students (PASS). UAP works in eight strategic areas to reach its overall goals of increasing enrollment, academic performance, and graduation rates of students from demographic groups historically underrepresented in higher education.
